"Not a sign," said the Superintendent emphatically, "and for the first time in my experience Pinault is wrong the very first time. He was dead sure."

Rose passed a fairly good night, and Dr Pinault, who was called in, saw nothing more in the sickness than some nervous affection. But on the day of the 5th the vomitings returned.

M. Pinault was very much like M. Littré in respect to his concentrated passion and the originality of his ways. If M.

Men of their stamp always go to one extreme or another.
